i am an aide at locust grove and took care of your dad. bill reminded me of my dad and i had a soft spot for him, i made sure i lotioned his feet and arms, put his nice clothes on, made sure his face and hands were washed everyday when i had him and i know he liked his coffee, so i would always have a pot of coffee on. when he couldn't sleep i would bring him down with me and we would play cards. i just thought you would like to know he was taken care of. he is in a better place now. i would have liked to hear more of his life but i couldn't make it out there. sincerely cathy geczi
